heres a pic of what i might put it in. either this one (77000 miles) or my other one 119300 miles

 

Well if you want different and torque why don't you just go with the V10?

 

Hope you made plans to cut a big hole in that hood to fit the 5.4 intake.

 

there is a company that makes a spacer to use a 4.6 intake on the 5.4, just can't remember the name right now

 

The manifolds are another challenge. There is no way in the world that the extremely high 5.4 F-series/Expedition/Excursion intake is going to fit under your hood. I tried it, and I have a 3 inch high cowl induction and it would not close. You have two options. One is to procure the 99-newer van intake for the 5.4 which is a lower intake, looks like the composite 96-up 4.6 intake, it SHOULD clear the hood on 94-95's, and will on the 96-97s. I say should because, while I have the intake, it is not on my car yet, and I have a higher than stock hood. The intake should work though, but because it is 99-up, you will need the fuel rails for a 96-97 Thunderbird or Mustang, because the 99 has a returnless fuel system, and the 94--95 rails won't clear the throttle body.

This is a quote from tccoa.com. This is coming from a guy that has done the swap and has had almost no problems.the only item i will need to get is the 96-96 fuel rails.i already have the engine(long block out of a 2000 f150) with only 47263 miles,all the electronics, and all the tools i need up at work.next step, 373s and a t5.(with moe money)

 

Good luck with the swap! Post pics of your progress..

 

will do jdl1000
